Meadville Favored To Clinch Tie In Section II Crown
Meadville and Titusville remain unbeaten as Meadville hosts Warren in a decisive District 10 Section IP finale. If Meadville wins it would produce a rare sectional deadlock since 1951, aided by a special point system that values league game results and head to head voids. Meadville stands at the top with 460 points, Corry third with 90, Ol City fourth with 210, Franklin and Warren near the cellar with 50 points each. The meeting, key for the league title, is set for Meadville tomorrow and could seal a tie or crown barring upsets.
